History

File:Dixie Outlet Mall logo.png

It was opened in 1956 as Dixie Plaza, and was renamed Dixie Outlet Mall in the late 1980s after significant expansion and renovations took place. The name Dixie Plaza was adopted by another property in the 1980s. It was the first mall of its kind in Mississauga (then known as Toronto Township, or specifically, Lakeview) and is the oldest still in operation.

Established in 1976, the Fantastic Flea Market is the oldest flea market in Toronto.{{cite web |title=Fantastic Flea Markets Limited |url=http://www.toronto.com/listing/211237--fantastic-flea-markets-limited |website=Toronto.com |archive-url=https://archive.today/20120913205231/http://www.toronto.com/listing/211237--fantastic-flea-markets-limited |archive-date=September 13, 2012}} Located in the basement of the Dixie Outlet Mall, the flea market offers a diverse collection of items such as clothing, jewellery, video games, antiques and memorabilia, while also providing personal services including electronic and watch repairs.{{Cite web|url=http://www.fantasticfleamarket.com/index/marketinfo.html|title=Fantastic Flea Market Mississauga|website=Fantasticfleamarket.com}}

In 1978, the Sayvette store was converted into a Knob Hill Farms. A new Burger King was added that year, and was scheduled to be a training centre for the chain's employees.{{Cite web|url=http://pub.canadiana.ca/view/omcn.MississaugaTimes_19/273?r=0&s=5|title=Mississauga Times : May 31, 1978 - September 27... - Public Collections|website=Pub.canadiana.ca}}

Dixie Outlet Mall is "100% Bullfrog Powered", meaning that it runs directly on clean and renewable electricity generated by wind and hydroelectric sources. Dixie Outlet Mall also provides many recycling stations throughout the mall. It was awarded the Gold Award by the Recycling Council of Ontario in 2010 for its efforts.{{Cite web|url=https://www.dixieoutletmall.com/green_initiatives|title=Green Initiatives | Dixie Outlet Mall|website=Dixieoutletmall.com}}
